THoughts on the 5402SA?

I was wondering if any of you own/owned a 5402SA and have any tips on what to look out for. Its a watch I've wanted for a while as I just love the 2 tone. I know polishing is one major thing but other than that are there other quirks with this reference or 5402s in general that I ought to keep in mind?

The dial, crown, band, deployant, hands, lume, movement, and a few other things.

haha yes basically the whole watch, but I was talking about specific details. Like looking out for a service vs original crown (I believe original crowns are blank as opposed to the service ones that have the AP logo on them. Are there specific things like that that I need to be aware of?

Those are the specific details, due to its age those are the things you need to pay attention to, but there's a considerable amount of nuance associated with each of the components that you need to take into account. If you find a specific piece then you should post it here and I'm sure all of us would help you out in terms of pointing out things.
